So I got to drive around a Dodge Journey today and at first glance, I didn't really feel a need to drive one. I was a bit excited because this was the R/T version and I'm a bit of a fan of Dodge cars at times. The big problem that I always felt about driving one is once the adrenaline died down from all the fun, I would think, "I would never buy one. It's too impractical." However, I think I may have found the cure.
I felt that the car or SUV whatevers was pretty responsive. When I stepped on the gas, it really went somewhere. I would turn the wheel and it pulled me in whatever direction I wanted it to go. It felt like (if I were a parent) could drive my kids to school and go straight to a race track in the same vehicle. This thing as 3 rows of seats, leather, great sounds and the most surprising; good fuel economy...good for a dodge anyway. I got around 22 mpg, which is about the same as my Taurus and this has a 3.5L V6 that really feels great. I just had this feeling that the car wanted me to step on the gas. In this, I wanted to keep going faster....maybe because I was driving in traffic, haha~
I hate to say, I would really want to buy one.
